Microsoft cloud solution for Helio Gaming

Lottery gaming supplier Helio Gaming has become one of the first igaming companies to to sign up to Microsoft‘s Azure cloud platform.

The Malta-based Helio will benefit from the platform’s scalable hosted system, as will the supplier’s lottery operator partners.

Microsoft Azure is a cloud-based computing service that supports a variety of applications through its network of managed data centres, allowing for security, transparency, scalability, and high-level infrastructure.

Richard Mifsud, CEO at Helio Gaming, said: “We are delighted to be hosting our content through Azure.

“Unifying our business channels with this software allows for a seamless transition for all our teams and smoother integration across Microsoft’s secure environment.

“Azure allows us to reduce time to market, increase reliability to the highest percentile, and distribute our services globally with ease. As one of the very first in igaming to use Azure, we look forward to seeing the benefits it brings to both us and our customers.”

Helio Gaming now offers a range of customisable lottery games including daily, weekly, and event-based draws, which can be branded by individual operators and which offer unlimited jackpots.
